In terms of color spaces, SRGB (the typical baseline default RGB of desktop computing) is quite naive and inefficient. Pretty much its only upsides are its conceptual and mathematical simplicity. There are much more efficient color spaces which use dynamic non-linear curves and are based on how the rods and cones in human eyes sense color.
True. Also, in most gradients, the full range of R G and B is not used.
In rgb(50, 60, 70) to rgb(150, 130, 120), there are only 200 total transitions.

The current hotness for wide color gamuts and High Dynamic Range is ICTCP (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICtCp) which is conceptually similar to (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LMS_color_space).
The same logic applies to any other color space with 24 total bits of resolution.
True!
